or_o equal_a drive_v man_n of_o wealth_n show_v what_o big_a conceit_n they_o have_v of_o themselves_o in_o a_o word_n let_v example_n here_o make_v the_o case_n plain_a name_v a_o man_n almost_o that_o do_v not_o wax_v proud_a by_o wealth_n unless_o god_n so_o sauce_v his_o sweet_a meat_n with_o the_o sour_a sauce_n of_o affliction_n that_o it_o be_v even_o make_v unsavoury_a to_o he_o it_o breed_v this_o frenzy_n in_o david_n vzzia_n asa_n hezekiah_n the_o best_a king_n that_o the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o and_o if_o such_o man_n can_v not_o bear_v it_o what_o be_v we_o if_o any_o think_v though_o it_o make_v other_o worse_o it_o shall_v not_o make_v he_o so_o let_v he_o know_v that_o this_o very_a conceit_n show_v he_o to_o be_v proud_a when_o he_o have_v it_o not_o and_z how_o will_v he_o be_v then_o if_o it_o be_v in_o his_o hand_n thou_o be_v now_o conceit_v when_o thou_o be_v in_o a_o low_a estate_n will_v thy_o conceit_n of_o thyself_o diminish_v with_o the_o
